what it says on the tin, what were you about to write off as lost media that you quickly found? mine was the original version of shape world 4 (also known as "everything is okay again") which i was gonna make a thread on but double checked to find a unlisted reupload.

I mean, does it really count in the first place? It's one thing for it to be genuine lost or unaccounted for media and someone just found it with light elbow grease (like the Mr Potato Head show that was found pages deep into Google) and then there's just dumb luck if it was simply obscure and not you putting effort into looking for it.
Things like this are how way too many posts on r/lostmedia are with people solving their own threads in minutes or having them resolved quickly with little to no effort. It was never something that was truly lost in the first place.
You can find the threads about it on my profile, but I remember thinking this Pac-Man fan game was lost and super obscure, joining a Pac-Man Discord server to ask about it as the start for a full search, and I got the game right then and there with it just being really hard to Google. It was so funny yet nostalgic.
some Poko eps. I found pokorocks' thread on Poko and realised I could get a few DVDs pretty cheap.
Yeah, there are some dvds that haven't been ripped online and poko was one of them. I just couldn't buy them, because the shipping was expensive for me.

Ponyride and Aunt Canada (both now available on my Internet Archive) It's honestly so easy to find where something is or is from.
